Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a connector for a vehicle audio system that can be connected to the vehicle's circuit board at various angles. This improves the assemblability of the product and allows for easy changes in wiring route when the specification is changed. The connector has a rotating shaft and an elastic member, which allows for secure connection at various angles. The technical effects of the invention are improved usability and flexibility in connecting the audio system to the vehicle's circuit board.

Problems solved by technology

However, the audio system connector is fixed to the audio system in one direction, and thus there are limitations on the mounting angle and orientation of an audio system when it is mounted in a vehicle.

Abstract

A connector for an audio system of a vehicle is disclosed. The connector comprises: a connector body, which is to be connected with a connecting terminal of an automotive circuit board of the vehicle; a first rotating shaft, which has a first washer and is fixed on one side of the connector body; a second rotating shaft, which has a second washer, which is to be engaged with the first washer, and is fixed to the audio system; and an elastic member disposed between the first washer and the second washer.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to Korean Application No. 10-2007-0117468, filed on Nov. 16, 2007, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Technical Field[0003]The present invention relates to a connector for a vehicle audio system which is connected to the circuit board of a vehicle.[0004]2. Background Art[0005]In a vehicle, an audio system is connected to various control units using a connector. This audio system connector is directly fixed to a circuit board. The audio system connected to the audio system connector is mounted at a preset position.[0006]However, the audio system connector is fixed to the audio system in one direction, and thus there are limitations on the mounting angle and orientation of an audio system when it is mounted in a vehicle.[0007]Further, when a specification is changed based on a change in the mounting position or the layout of the audio system, the wiring rout...
